WR Alex Balke [Nebraska Walk-on]

I like that he is 6-3 and about 190. we need to keep getting the taller receivers on the team. If he has good speed and hands to match, he could be a nice addition in the long run.

 
Not to take away from this kid, seems like a great athlete and good walk on. But he played in Iowa's lowest Level, 1A so the competition is not the greatest. Glad to have him

With the lack of talent Iowa has, I am VERY surprised they didn't give this kid a scholarship. This kid has speed, VERY nice hands and has the ability to come away with the ball, even if its not thrown greatly by his QB. This kid is an absolute steal for Nebraska and its walk-on program.
They appear to lack anyone who can deliver the ball to a receiver.............
I would beg to differ, they have two QB's with a good arm and some nice accuracy. The only thing is, they all lack experience. I watched their Spring Game, Sokol and Rudock look pretty good. With a good OL, all you need is a decent QB to do better than what they did last year, especially with Weisman being a huge threat in the run game.

I understand its only a Spring Game, but they do have a good arm. I am not going to be premature and state that they don't have a QB who can't throw until I see it on a Gameday.
